Determine the amount of market appreciation, if any, realized over the ownership term by <br /> calculating the difference between the initial appraised value at purchase and the current appraised <br /> value at resale.This figure represents the basis for calculating the fair return on investment. In <br /> declining markets, it is possible that the homeowner may not realize a return. <br /> B. Multiply the basis by the Federal Housing Finance Agency's Housing Price Index (HPI)to <br /> determine the fair return to the homeowner: <br /> https://www.fhfa.gov/DataTools/Tools/Pages/HPICalculator.aspx <br /> To calculate the resale price to the next homebuyer,the Consortium will add the fair return on <br /> investment to the homeowner to the original affordable price of the home at purchase by the <br /> original buyer. <br /> Example#1: <br /> • Appraised (Fair Market)Value at Purchase: $210,000 <br /> • Affordable Price at Purchase: $190,000• Appraised Value at Resale: $240,300 <br /> • Increase in Market Appreciation: $240,300-$210,000= $30,300 <br /> • Average Appreciation in the Raleigh-Durham MSA(per the HPI Calculator): 29.4% <br /> Annual Action Plan 33 <br /> FY 2025-2026 <br />
